"7 Round Metal Magazine ~ 7.62x51, .308, .303, Size 4"x 3" ~ FREE SHIPPING"

 

Any clue what is wrong with this title?  Thank you.

 

 

The item cannot be listed or modified. The title and/or description may contain improper words, or the listing or seller may be in violation of eBay policy.

Listings for firearms parts and accessories that we allow must follow these guidelines:

  • The listing must clearly identify the part or accessory being sold as well as the type of firearm it fits ("type" can mean general use and not necessarily brand or manufacturer). For example, "This part can be used with bolt-action rifles."

The title is so vague it looks like you are hiding behind an Ebay listing violation policy.  Is whatever type gun part you're listing even allowed ?

Hi, some magazines are not allowed to be listed. Below is the link to the firearms and accessories policy.

Your magazine may be legal HERE.  However, ebay is used by many in many different countries and there are a number of countries that have strict regulations about pieces and parts and some even have strict bans.   Soooooo, if it is illegal somewhere that ebay is available, it may well have been taken down because of that.

 

And, while others may be listed, and eventually sell, there is nothing to say that ebay won't 'cancel' the sale 'due to a problem'.

Not saying 'NO' doesn't mean 'YES'.

The foolishness of one's actions or words is determined by the number of witnesses.

Perhaps if Brains were described as an APP, many people would use them more often.

What does it fit and what is the capacity?

 

2 very important things. 

 

It does look like you are hiding something.

7 round is the capacity - as in the OP's listing title.

 

And he listed the 3 calibers he thinks it is .. none of those are automatic.

 

But I believe some states/cities have a 5 round limit, like NYC, for rifles and shotguns. The calibers he listed area all rifle rounds.

How about rewording the listing to: "Magazine For Sale, 7 Round Metal free shipping" Leave out the measurements and clearly state it's a periodical that's for sale.

good luck.

It is not a periodical.  Doing as you suggest would make it clear that the seller knows his listing may be against policy and is trying to circumvent said policy by lying about the item.
